Functions and derivations of C1-algebras

It is shown that there is a closed symmetric derivation δ of a C¹-algebra with dense domain $\text{D}$(δ), an element A = A¹ ?$\text{D}$(δ), and a C¹-function $\text{f}$ such that $\text{f}$(A)?$\text{D}$(δ). Some estimates are derived for $\text{∥ δ(¦ A ¦)∥}\text{and}\text{∥ δ(A}{}_{\mathrm{+}}{}^{\mathrm{\alpha }}\text{)∥}$, where 0 < α < 1. It is shown that there exists a family of one-one self-adjoint operators S(t) in $\text{L}$(H) which depends linearly on t, while $\text{¦ S(t)¦}$ is not differentiable. It is also shown that there exists $\text{L}$(H) which is not C¹-self-adjoint even though it satisfies $\text{∥}\text{exp}\text{(itT)∥ ? C(1 + ¦ t ¦)}$ for all t ? $\text{R}$
